1Stationary fuel cell applications — (or stationary fuel cell power systems) are stationary (Not moving) fuel cell applications that are either connected to the electric grid (distributed generation) to provide supplemental power and as emergency power system for critical areas, or… …
2Point of zero charge — The point of zero charge (pzc), in physical chemistry, is a concept relating to the phenomenon of adsorption, and it describes the condition when the electrical charge density on a surface is zero. It is usually determined in relation to an… …
3Fixed point (mathematics) — Not to be confused with a stationary point where f (x) = 0. A function with three fixed points In mathematics, a fixed point (sometimes shortened to fixpoint, also known as an invariant point) of a function is a point[1] that is …
4Lagrangian point — The Lagrangian points (IPA en|ləˈgreɪndʒiən, IPA fr|lagʁɑ̃ʒjɑ̃; also Lagrange point, L point, or libration point), are the five positions in an orbital configuration where a small object affected only by gravity can theoretically be stationary… …
5Lagrange Point Colonization — is the colonization of the five equilibrium points in the orbit of a planet or moon its primary, called Lagrange points. The most obvious points for colonization are the points in the Earth Moon system and the points in the Sun Earth system.… …

7Apache Point Observatory Lunar Laser-ranging Operation — APOLLO shooting a laser at the Moon. The laser pulse is reflected from the retroreflectors on the Moon (see below) and returned to the telescope. The round trip time tells the distance to the Moon to great accuracy. In this picture the Moon is… …
